Please ...Help Me
We Need long-live token.
msmoe Здравко is correct, Dropbox is no longer offering the option for creating new long-lived access tokens. Dropbox is switching to only issuing short-lived access tokens (and optional refresh tokens) instead of long-lived access tokens. You can find more information on this migration here.
Apps can still get long-term access by requesting "offline" access though, in which case the app receives a "refresh token" that can be used to retrieve new short-lived access tokens as needed, without further manual user intervention. You can find more information in the OAuth Guide and authorization documentation.
For reference, while the creation of new long-lived access tokens is now deprecated, we don't currently have a plan to disable existing long-lived access tokens. (If that changes, we will of course announce that ahead of time.) That being the case, you can continue using existing long-lived access token(s) without interruption, if you have any. Also, note though that after the change you won't be able to create new long-lived access tokens.
While the change began on September 30th 2021, we released it gradually, so you may not have seen your app(s) affected until more recently. Once it applies to your app, it would apply regardless of the "Access token expiration" setting for your app, and that setting may no longer be available for your app.
Note that this is something that would need to be implemented by the programmer of the app though, so if you are not the programmer responsible for this integration, you may need to get an update from them to support this.
Hi Greg-DB
Thank You for reply.
Sir, I don't understand what you are saying.
I am refer to the documentation.
My Code is below Sir.
Where is it wrong? And Where is it needed?
Please help me Sir.
Because I've tried and I can't.
Because it's important to me Sir.
Please
$filename = $request->file('video')->getClientOriginalName();
if($request->hasFile('video'))
{
$args = array(
"autorename"=> false,
"mode"=> "overwrite",
"mute"=> false,
'path' => '/'.'video'.'/'.$filename,
);
$client = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
'headers' => [
'authorization' => "Bearer {$this->getToken()}",
'Content-Type'=> 'application/octet-stream',
'Dropbox-API-Arg' => json_encode($args)
],
]);

Hmm... really... Where is this documentation? Read it and probably you won't need somebody to tell you what you have to do. Again your main issue is the empty request body - leading to empty file (not only wrong parameter)! Where are you filling the request body in your code? As Greg correctly told you 'data-binary' is command line curl parameter. What is the equivalent parameter in your environment?
For easier debugging redirect the request to http://httpbin.org/post and upload some text file for easier reading (instead of binary one - like media file). Dump the result and see what you are sending actually, including the request body. Is it correct? Read the "big books" and try correct the request until correct one (matching to /2/files/upload).
One thing you can do is to create a text file with content something like "My body is Hello World" and name "test.txt". Next make a post request like:
curl -X POST http://httpbin.org/post \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN' \
-H 'Dropbox-API-Arg: {"autorename":false,"mode":"overwrite","mute":false,"path":"/video/test.txt"}' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/octet-stream' \
--data-binary @test.txtAs a response you will get description of what you have sent. It's easy to see what you have sent as a body (the file content). After that, replace the URL in your code and see what's there. While reading your documentation, try to make your request in code to be similar to what curl does (least the body, labeled as "data", has to be the same).
Good luck.
